Happy Kwanzaa!
Today we celebrate Kujichagulia (koo-jee-cha-goo-LEE-ah)!
What does Kujichagulia mean?
Kujichagulia in Swahili means Self-Determination.
Self-Determination - To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves, and speak for ourselves.
On day 2 we light the red candle on the kinara. This candle is lit to remind ourselves of our hard work and to continue teaching our community to be productive citizens. We must make sure that we don't forget to reach for the stars and to be the best we can be. Continue to build your community and your families. It's important to achieve your goals and to be successful.
